This is quite off topic, but it's something I wanted to share with everyone because it is making my life alot easier. We have a two and half year old boy and now a one month old boy. We also have some stairs leading to downstairs. Well, that means we need a gate to keep the little ones off the steps.
The first try at the gate was a miserable failure. It was so bad that when my parents were here last week, I dropped an f-bomb with my mom in hearing distance....yes, the gate made me say the second f-bomb ever in front of my Mom (the first one was when I was fifteen and it should have NEVER happened). Anyway, I hated this gate because it didn't work very well, it was lopsided, and the screws pulled out of the wood and sheetrock, making it look awful. It nearly cost me a laptop, too, last fall when I dropped my laptop down the steps (tile, not carpet) after screwing with the unworkable gate latch.
My wife then got a Munchkin gate that promised sturdieness, ease of use, and no screws required. Triple win, right?!? Indeed it was!! Simple to install. Easy to use. And quite sturdy. Took me ten minutes to put in, and it is great.
Why waste time screwing around with a gate and screws and all that? Just get one of these Munchkin gates and thank me later. Just sayin'......
